Can't forgive cops who 'stole' his life: Family

The New Indian Express Coimbatore

July 03, 2025

The tears welling up in their eyes are no match to the agony they are feeling, the loss they are encountering, and the void they are experiencing, as this mother-brother duo breaks down whenever Ajithkumar's name crops up.

- VIGNESH V @Sivaganga

All efforts of politicos, cutting across party lines—from DMK to TVK—to console the family are in vain.

The air is pregnant with grief and agony, as evident from the posters condemning the police department, pasted across the streets in the nondescript village of Madapuram near Thirupuvanam.

"Why should they (the police) kill him? They could have let him free after breaking his hand or leg, as that's their so-called routine," tells B Malathy (52), mother of Ajithkumar, to TNIE during a visit to the village on Wednesday.
